Dallas, getting the favorable calls already had a safety taken off the board with no clear angle. Yet the ref right down the line called it a safety. BS. It’s looks on the line to me. SMH

Don’t have audio where I’m watching - how was that not a safety? Both feet were in the end zone when the hit was initiated

Now Spann-ford for Dallas tackles the returner on the KO return. Then proceeds to grab the returners head and slams it into the turf after the tackle. Was there a penalty called? NOPE!

Generally speaking, I don’t fret about the refs in a game. It’s hard to call games. But tonight? This crew is not doing a very good job

I think the calls have evened out. Dallas is routinely one of the most penalized teams in the league, yet any time they get a lucky break it's like the league is suddenly fixed. I don't know why Dallas didn't go for it at the end of the 2nd half to try and score a TD. not settle for a long field goal and give Detroit the ball back. Dallas doesn't look ready to play on defense. and their offense has had way too many negative plays.

they did a good job on that PI call that didn't get awarded because they did their job and caught the hands to the face on the cowboys TE. bad half for Ferguson with that penalty and the fumble. he cost the cowboys a lot of points.

That no call on SpannFord was a brutal no call. That was bad.

are you talking about the late hit? I saw a late hit and a roughing the passer not given on Detroit as well when a guy forearmed Prescott in the face. I heard that dallas is the 3rd most penalized team in the league. in the games that they have lost this is how they have looked. Prescott has made some awful passes to lamb that should have been touchdowns. and now he got lamb injured.

63 from Aubrey woulda been good from 66-67
he would have been able to attempt another long one if Ferguson would have protected the ball and went down in the 2nd quarter. dallas is giving up like 10 yards per carry on the ground. if I'm Detroit I would just keep running.

yeah there's still time, but I think so too. Dallas were not ready to play at the start and Detroit was. the cowboys defense is not good enough for them to be a come from behind team. Jerry Jones really screwed this team by trading Parsons right before the season started. it cost them at least a game or two and that's probably the difference in making the playoffs.

well there's a big ref decision that def didn't favor dallas. looked like defensive PI or no call.

They could probably use a win against the Cards this season too. :p
